Right. You get to around the 10K+ range and you've basically got Vegas (the Sands and possibly the Convention Center though I haven't been to the latter since Comdex days), the Moscone, Javits, the main convention center in Boston (10K is a bit large for the Hynes), Orlando can be made to work (though I hate the logistic involved). There are doubtless other potential locations--Chicago was the other Comdex site back in the day, Houston had/had huge oil & gas shows--but I can't remember the last time I've seen a top-tier tech show at another location.


Yes McCormick Place in Chicago can definitely handle conventions of that size.
